The Ocean to Colleges 85 Route

The Tides Are Right

Edit for 2015 Ocean to Colleges 85 So the trip below didn’t happen in 2014.  A couple of weeks before the paddle, I had an email from Alan to say that he’d injured his shoulder “boarding in Japan” and wasn’t going to be fit for the challenge.  I promptly postponed the paddle and proceeded to tell […]
